There have been various rumors floating around over the past 2 weeks that Russia would do everything in its power to establish its foothold in Syria once and for all, with the local regime closer to the edge with every passing day. There have also been rumors, however silly, that Russia is willing to give up its naval basis in the Syrian port city of Tartus, since denied. Today, we finally get the full story, courtesy of the BBC, which is that that "three large Russian landing ships carrying hundreds of marines will soon visit the port of Tartus in war-torn Syria, the Russian military says."

"Only Russian and Chinese resistance to Western stupidity is standing between Israel, Syria&#8217;s Alawite minority, the Christians in Syria &#8211; and a bloodbath..."

There has been a surface refueling base in Syria for many years. When an effort was made to open a second base, the equivalent of the Russian #2 guy who had been visiting Syria, well, he washed up dead in Turkey. This was a duplicate of a year or two earlier of a top Russian intelligence officer being killed on the beach with a rifle shot at the first naval base.

Since then, Russian negotiated refuelling rights with Cyprus as part of a rescue of the Greek Cypriot economy.

Russia has had submarine refuelling base in leased floes off Malta since the 1970s.

And, if Russian Marines land in Syria, there will be hundreds of defections to the west!

Aren't democrats the best, what I absolutely positively am chomping at the bit for, is the war to begin in earnest, so that we are forced to draft(a democratic/Marxist sacrament)up all young military age males for immediate deployment into combat, which sure enough is exactly whats going to occur!

I anticipate the imminent loss of millions of worthless, ultra-fat *** teenage males all of whom attended one public school or the other, and thought they were special just because!
